Both pro-life events taking place in California are scheduled for this weekend.
Walk for Life West Coast and OneLife LA, two major pro-life walks on the West Coast of the United States, will both be held Saturday, Jan. 22, on the 49th anniversary of the 1973 Roe v. Wade decision, which struck down the nation’s anti-abortion laws. The 18th-annual Walk for Life West Coast is a largely Catholic event featuring a walk through the streets of downtown San Francisco; the eighth-annual OneLife LA is an Archdiocese of Los Angeles event featuring a walk through the streets of Los Angeles. Both are scheduled to be in-person events.
In 2020, the San Francisco event drew 50,000, and the Los Angeles event drew 30,000. Issues related to the pandemic reduced the size of the San Francisco event to 3,000 walkers in 2021, while the Los Angeles event went entirely online. Organizers hope that numbers will rebound for 2022.
